Advent Calendar – 6 December
Welcome to the Motherside: A Safe Space for Parents
Motherhood can feel pretty isolating at times. So much changes so quickly, and it can all feel a bit unreal. We’re stretched to our limits—physically, mentally, and emotionally—and confronted by feelings we may never have experienced before. Anger, frustration, guilt, and loneliness creep in, and often it feels like we’re left on our own to deal with it all.
This is where Welcome to the Motherside, created by Luisa, comes in. Luisa provides a space where mothers can feel truly seen, heard, and supported. Through daily support via voice messages and individual online coaching, she helps parents make sense of their emotions, understand their children’s needs, and—most importantly—acknowledge their own.
Freebie for you!
A Special Advent Calendar Collaboration
For Day 6 of my advent calendar, Luisa has agreed to offer something really special! Today only, she’s providing a free day of individual support via Instagram messenger—just for you!
Here’s how to join in:
- Head over to Instagram now!
- Follow both of us @mummydidntknow and @welcometothemotherside.
- Look for Luisa’s story with the “Ask me” sticker.
- Send her your questions to start a conversation — English and German are both welcome!
This is a unique opportunity to ask those questions that have been weighing on your mind, and receive thoughtful, personal support – whether it’s about your child’s behaviour, boundaries, overwhelm, or just something you need to share; Today is #AskLuisa day in our #MummyAdvent !
Why It Matters
Luisa’s approach resonates with me because it’s not just about parenting—it’s about helping us as mums and dads. She sees the struggles we face, the mental load we carry, and the times we feel completely stretched thin. Her work is about creating a safe space where we can explore those emotions and find ways to bring more compassion for into motherhood — for ourselves and our children.
This collaboration is our way of giving back this season, sharing support and connection with this wonderful community. We hope this special day offers you a little clarity, comfort, and encouragement.
